Sorry, factory stats have nothing to do with what Bush has done.
This is from projections for future increased spending by the typical consumer,
who are just starting to emerge from the past downturn.
You can't not give Clinton credit for the 90's surge
and then say Bush has influence here.
Make your pick, they either both do or they both don't
Personally, I really don't think the President has that much control over the Economy.
The Treasury (ala Greenspan) probably has a bit more influence.
With lower interest rates for factory loans.
And they've worked under BOTH Presidents.
I do think they DO have significant influence on the budget
and the deficit.
And the tax measures passed are more for individual incomes,
not factory margins.
And they aren't significant enough to make a big different in spending habits.
